Table Mountain High



One of many things that makes Cape Town so special is 3,600-foot Table Mountain. The city is nestled right at its base, giving it one of the world’s great backdrops for a major metropolis. The cable car ride to the top is a major tourist attraction and a lot of fun. But to me it’s even more fun to skip the cableway and hoof it up. You feel overwhelmed by the surroundings and you’re fighting gravity every step of the way, which makes the views so much more worthwhile.
